Song Text
||: Bin ikh mir a shnayderl :||
Leb ikh mir tog-oys-tog-ayn
Lustik un freylakh un fayn!
Zog mir, shnayderl,
libinker un guter:
Git dir di nodl
Genug oyf broyt mit puter?
Ikh makh a vokh
Tsvey gildn mit a drayer.
Ikh es nor broyt, vayl puter iz tsu tayer…
||: Bin ikh mir a shusterl :||
Leb ikh mir tog-oys-tog-ayn
Lustik un freylakh un fayn!
Zog mir shusterl,
hostu vos tsu kayen?
(...?)
Krigstu vu tsu layen?
Keyner layt nit,
Keyner git keyn (arobes?)
Ikh bin a shuster –
Gey ikh take borves…
||: Bin ikh mir a kremerl :||
Leb ikh mir tog-oys-tog-ayn
Lustik un freylakh un fayn!
Zog mir, kremerl,
Hostu vos tsu handlen,
Hostu in kreml
Rozhinkes mit mandlen?
Ikh hob in kreml
Far tsvey groshn skhoyre,
Ikh shlep dem dales
Un ikh bentsh dem boyre…
